Odd electronic glitches.

This is a simple topic about wierd problems you've had with technology.

Recently I've had problems playing videos on my computer, for some reason it keeps stopping when the progress bar reaches about an inch. I don't know the reason for this and it happens on every video player.

So what problems has the escapist had?

I'm sorry but only nine people have viewed the thread, in order to give it more of a chance it needs to be bumped.

my old computer the disc drive would get stuck, and would take 3-5 tries to open it.

my new computer has done this ONCE but not since, so i'm good.

Tried everything you say? Well if you tried smashing them its no wonder why they won't work.

OT: I have this really weird line of green pixels running down my screen. It sometimes vanishes when I restart the laptop so its probably not a broken pixel problem.

I have a light on the wall next to my desk, I have to unscrew and then re-screw it back in every time I want to turn it on, else it will appear to be dead.
